f250 camper special. probably have to drill holes for stabilizer mtg on frame. is frame same width?

A factory swaybar from a dentside truck ('73-'79) is a direct bolt-on for all earlier Twin I-beam trucks. The end links attach to a bracket mounted under the coil spring. The only holes you'd need to drill are the for the frame support brackets.

speaking of sway bars, do any aftermarket ones work with our suspension?

Sure, Addco sells complete kits. Here's a pic of one installation...this is an Addco ACO-113G:



If you're good with mild fabricating, you can easily adapt just about any swaybar. Here's one from a Ch*bby that someone installed with homemade brackets:

I orderd both the front and rear sway bars from Summit

ACO-113 & ACO-209G

I will let you guys know how they go on my 67.

Cool, I would appreciate that.

I will be using a 95 front D60 and D70 rear so I have the swaybars from a 95' F350 and a 85' F350 so hopefully one of those can be made to work. I thinking though that those are for the wider frames so if I used them the mounts wont be on the ends of the bar before it goes down to the axle so that may be a problem might have to get the 73-79 for the frame width??

I installed the front and rear that LMC sells which from the above pictures is indeed Addco.They do help the sway but makes for a stiffer ride.Not too bad to install.I was a little scared to drill through the i beams but they are not as tuff to drill through as I thought.I do recommend them,and they are not too pricey either.
